Bush referred to as ‘moron’…

Canada has declined to comment on reports a senior Canadian official at the NATO summit in Prague has referred to US President George W Bush as a moron.

Newspaper The National Post says a top Canadian official has expressed frustration President Bush seems more keen on building up moral support for a possible assault on Iraq, rather than concentrating on NATO expansion – the official focus of the summit.

A spokesman for Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien says he will not comment on the incident.

If Canada refuses to deny it…well…draw your own conclusions.

The real point here of course is Bush has indeed ignored anything resembling the actual purpose of the summit. If Canada, a purported ally, is annoyed, imagine what other ccuntries are thinking.
